Someday America will have female presidents. But we should thank God every 日 that Hillary Clinton won't be the first. We really dodged a bullet on Tuesday.

Donald Trump hasn't been a reliable conservative all his life. I voted for him (I only vote Republican), but I've often had mixed feelings about him. But as the man who beat Crooked Hillary in the biggest presidential election upset since "Dewey Defeats Truman," he at least deserves a clean slate . . . 投稿されました１年以上前

I supported Ted Cruz in the Republican primary. He would have made a great president, and hopefully will someday. I don't consider Donald Trump to be a real conservative, but he is the only viable option to stop Hillary Clinton. I 提出されました my absentee ballot with a vote for Trump on October 24. 投稿されました１年以上前

If Trump is elected but acts like a liberal in office, I will hope for and support a conservative primary opponent in 2020. １年以上前

Someday America will elect its first female president, but voting for a woman just because she's a woman is ridiculous. And sexist. I hope instead that America's first female president will be a conservative, elected for her values and her vision, not her sex. １年以上前

Today I cast my vote in the Connecticut Republican primary (by absentee ballot) for Ted Cruz, Texas U.S. senator, consistent conservative, and friend of the Constitution, whom I have liked for years. In the 2016 cycle, Cruz was and is the only choice for serious, authentic, movement conservatives. I am not the first to say he is the Reagan of our time, and I won't be the last. 投稿されました１年以上前

Of the two other remaining Republican candidates, John Kasich was always a non-starter for me because of his support for amnesty, his expansion of Medicaid, and his get-along moderate attitude, which values the idea of bipartisanship もっと見る than fighting for conservative goals. Donald Trump was fine as an entertainer—I watched early seasons of "The Apprentice" myself—but, among many other things, he lacks an ideological core (conservative または liberal), and is confused または unknowledgeable about many issues of the day. It is my hope that Cruz will win the Republican nomination (at this point, most likely at a contested national convention); if he fails to do so, I will most likely support whoever does get the Republican nomination, though I would consider defecting to a third-party candidate if he または she were viable and もっと見る conservative than nominee Trump. １年以上前

I will never, ever vote for a Democrat for any office (not even dog catcher if we elected them); I would rather eat a penguin. The idea of a President Hillary Clinton (or a President Comrade Bernie Sanders, the candidate of whiny Millennials and leftist socialists) scares me to death, and should scare to death any rational, moral person. Someday America will elect its first female president, but voting for a woman just because she's a woman is ridiculous. And sexist. I hope instead that America's first female president will be a conservative, elected for her values and her vision, not her sex. １年以上前

Why can't Republicans and Democrats just get along? I'm a Republican and I don't agree with most of the Democrat's opinions, but I don't want to argue. 投稿されました１年以上前

Although the primaries continue, those that remain are mainly just a formality now as Mitt Romney moves to officially clinch the Republican nomination. And since he is now the presumptive nominee, I have created his club here on Fanpop. Please 登録する and 表示する your support!

If I had to pick a republican to back right now, it'd be Romney. Mark my words, he'll be your candidate, and if he's not, god help the GOP as far as getting elected goes. あなた don't only need a candidate with strong conservative views, あなた need one that's electable, and, right now, many of them, for various reasons are not. Romney may be a bit floppy on some of his issues, but he hasn't alienated the moderates yet, like everyone else has. 投稿されました１年以上前

I also like Ron Paul, but even I concede he's not electable. Too many republicans resent his libertarian and socially liberal views. １年以上前

SJF_Penguin2 コメントしました…

I voted for Romney in 2008. I still like him today, though I'm personally finding it hard to forget about his Massachusetts healthcare system. I'd consider myself still uncommitted for 2012; fortunately, I don't have to make up my mind until April. And I wish a little that Rick Santorum had a better shot. １年以上前

Well, apparently Ron Paul is climbing in the Republican party. He came in third in the Iowa caucus. １年以上前

I have nothing against Ron Paul, but many hardcore republicans do, on account of his Libertarian perspectives. Like I said, it's not just about conservative views, it's about "does he have a chance at being elected against Obama?" Unless あなた can somehow charm both moderate republicans and unaffiliated voters, maybe even a few frustrated democrats, then chances aren't reassuring. １年以上前

For the record, McCain was a great candidate because he had mass appeal. Sarah Palin, on the otherhand, appealed to one niche, namely very conservative republicans. I still think it was Palin that ロスト McCain that election, もっと見る than anything else. Palin alienated the moderate voters. Obama and Biden appealed to them. They also appealed to the majority of liberal and democratic voters. あなた need both your side and the undecideds to win. Ron Paul could win over the moderates, but he doesn't have the support of his own party, and that's the tragedy. Most of the other republicans are the opposite. １年以上前

SJF_Penguin2 コメントしました…

Forgive me, but with all the far-left things Obama has done, how does he, then, appeal to moderates and independents in seeking another term? The need to appeal to moderate/independent voters is too often overblown によって both parties when what is really needed is stark contrasts. Sure, some middle-of-the-road voters will be turned off によって the strong liberalism of Obama and others will be turned off によって an equally strong conservative, but they're going to have to make a decision on which vision is ultimately the best for America for the 次 four years. With all due respect, the 2012 election is ultimately going to be a battle for the ハート, 心 and soul of the whole of America, not an appeal または capitulation to one category of voters または another. １年以上前

@SFJ_Penguin - あなた may be right, that may be how it turns out. However, I believe that the majority of Americans are moderate/centerists/non-affiliated voters. Generally speaking, a conservative voter will vote for a conservative candidate no matter what, if only to prevent a liberal candidate from winning. The same goes vice versa for the liberals. Even if the candidates are only moderately liberal または conservative, they're still もっと見る so than their opponant. That's why I think it's important to appeal to the undecideds, the moderates, because generally speaking, seriously liberal または conservative voters will always vote for their party - even if they don't particularly 愛 their candidate. Because their candidate is always better (in their mind's) than the alternative. １年以上前

Obama appeals to moderates with his calls for compromise, reaching across the aisle, and including non democratic members in his cabinet - Treasury Sec. Timothy Geithner (I), Transportation Sec. 線, レイ LaHood (R), Army Sec. John McHugh (R), even John Huntsman, who was appointed によって Obama to be Ambassador to China. Believe me, if あなたアンケート moderates, Obama is もっと見る人気 than leading republican candidate Newt Gingrich. In my mind, people who identify as staunch republicans will vote for the republican candidate as a vote against Obama, even if they don't 愛 their candidate. That's why the moderates will determine the election. １年以上前
